My father passed 2 years ago and left me his Scag 26 HP 61" cut Tiger Cat Zero Turn Mower Model # STC61V-26CV-EFI. It had been left in a storage building and used a few dozen times since then.
I was able to bring it home and give it the once over but the drive belt broke right away :-(
I am not near any local shop to have it serviced so Its on me to get it going again.
I was able to get a new belt ,it's jacked up and on ramps. I have read a number of helpful comments here about using a square drive socket and cheater bar to loosing the tensioner and a few other tips.
But I am still a little unsure how the belt goes on. do I need to remove the mower belt first to get the drive belt on ?
Once I get this done should I check the hours and carry out all maintenance tasks or because it's been left for so long are there any other things I should take care of ?
Thanks for your help
